Default I feel like a real Disco II owner now..

The 3 Amigo's have decided to visit and stay the past 2 days.. Guess I need to find someone local with the amigo tool. I really wish they would electively go back on vacation.

Your not one of us till you do a head gasket and driveshaft. So go back to your almost disco II, right now with just 3 amigos you arnt even considered a land rover yet.

ignore them.

i chose to ignore them for the last 2 years and now they have decided they have had enough of the silent treatment i have given them and they have gone away for the last 6 months.

I WIN!

Haha.. The new Tom woods front & rear drive shafts are in the garage, just need to install them. The head gasket is going to get done before summer. I guess eventually I will be part of the club...

Mine were like that too... damp or cold. Like when snowing.... you know, the times when it would be nice to have functional traction control.

I finally did josh's option B fix, and the seals..... seems good so far, but I don't drive it much these days.

I think you have a ground issue like I do. Or a battery/charging system that is lacking the proper power.

hmmm.. Ill check that.. I did notice the battery has some corrosion on it but was afraid to unplug it thinking it would reset ECU and make it run rough or something and really not have any idea how to tech it out... lol so I did basics first, I did see it has 12v but that could jyst be a surface charge and not while under load... I guess I need address that issue too...
